FEATURING 10 HOURS OF LIVE HD COVERAGE FROM COUNTDOWN, RED CARPET AND POST SHOW

NEW YORK, NY - September 16, 2004 - INHD, cable's most widely distributed all high definition network, has reached an agreement with E! Entertainment Television to telecast Live From The Red Carpet: The 2004 Emmy® Awards taking place September 19 from 6:00 - 8:00 PM ET/PT. INHD will feature 10 hours of live, high-definition coverage showcasing, only the way HD can, the pomp and circumstance of the Emmy® countdown, red carpet arrivals and post-show. This agreement marks E!'s second partnership with INHD, following the recent simulcast coverage from Live from the Red Carpet: Academy Awards®. The announcement was made today by Brad Fox, Senior Vice President, Affiliate Relations, E! Networks, and President and CEO of iN DEMAND Networks, Rob Jacobson.

Telecast in standard definition on E! and in HDTV on INHD, the festivities begin with six hours of coverage from 12:00-6:00 PM ET/PT on E!'s Live Countdown to the Red Carpet, hosted by popular E! personality Brooke Burke and KTLA Morning News entertainment reporter Sam Rubin. Shifting locations to outside of the Los Angeles Shrine Auditorium, Live From The Red Carpet: The 2004 Emmy® Awards hosted by Star Jones, co-host of ABC's The View, and fashion expert Robert Verdi will air from 6:00-8:00 PM (ET/PT). E!'s Live Emmy Awards Post Show hosted by E! News Live anchor John Burke will be telecast immediately following the awards from 11:00 PM - 1:00 AM ET/PT. Additional talent covering the day's events include E! News Live correspondents Patrick Stinson and Giuliana DePandi, E! Online reporter Kristin Veitch, Andrew Firestone and actor/comedian Mystro Clark.

"After our first very successful foray into HD earlier this year at the 2004 Academy Awards, we are pleased to be working once again with iN DEMAND to bring all the excitement of the Emmy's red carpet to our affiliates and HD viewers," said Fox. "We look forward to expanding our presence within this rapidly growing medium at the 2004 Emmys, and moving forward, at all of the major awards shows and star-studded red carpet events."

The six-hour pre-show will highlight the most sought-after celebrities and entail all of the glitz and glamour of fame while the live two-hour show will cover all the excitement from the red carpet and feature interviews with the nominees, presenters and other famed stars arriving for the ceremony. Concluding the ceremony, the "Live Post Show" will provide a two-hour wrap-up showcasing the winners, the performers and all the post event celebrations.

"The Red Carpet to the Emmy's is one of the Hollywood's most prestigious affairs, and certainly the most glamorous presentation," added Jacobson. "Our partnership with E! Networks vividly demonstrates our leadership role within the industry in bringing the HDTV audience the most engaging programs available in HD."
